Becoming Darth Vader…

10:30am tomorrow morning they’ll install a port-a-cathinto my chest. The tube (catheter) goes into my vein and will stay there throughout the chemo process. Rather than having to constantly stick needles into my veins for each procedure, they’ll use the port.

I HATE needles. I nearly passed out the last two times I gave blood. All the nurses tell me I’ll love the port-a-cath. It means fewer needles in my veins. I hope so.
